The inside story of the Gastown Steam Clock

Pellucid Expressions Publishing

pellucid expressions publishing, Sechelt, B.C. exists to tell optimistic stories that get to the heart of the matter with a handful of words.

Behind the Steam is the first of a planned series of “Behind the Scenes” stories of British Columbia curiosities. There is also a bit of creative history in the works, based on the adventures of a modest but talented Elizabethan clockmaker, organist, and hero. The story involves the Queen of England, the Sultan of Turkey, politics, storms at sea, pirates, and a musical marvel of steam punk clock technology.
